Measure
Fertilit-e
Participants review Fertilit-e content, undergo interviews about issues of content, functionality, and ease of use, and complete questionnaires over 45-60 minutes. Interview: Participants will review a computer prototype of Fertilit-e alpha. Using an interview guide, participants will be asked about issues of content, functionality, and ease of use (i.e., comprehensibility and usability). Interviews will be completed within 45-60 minutes. Questionnaire Administration: All participants will complete an interviewer administered screener for health literacy and self-report items for technology use, eHealth literacy, and need for cognition.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months

To evaluate Fertilit-e alpha, we will examine its usability through the System Usability Scale, a simple, ten-item attitude Likert scale (1 - strongly disagree to 5 strongly agree) giving a global view of subjective assessments of usability. The score range is 0 to 100. Higher scores are better and scores above 68 are considered above average.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months

Population: All 12 participants for Personal Stories, FAQ, and Personal Summary did not provide data for these themes.

To evaluate Fertilit-e alpha, we will examine its comprehensibility and design through a series of think aloud interviews. Qualitative analysis will provide an integrative summary and identification of key points, potential themes, and areas of further exploration.
